/domg/ - Dominions General

Previous administration Dominions is a fantasy turn-based war game created by two dudes. One of them is a teacher.

The game combines a simple presentation with an extremely wide array of strategic options, including over 2800 units, 800 spells and 300 magic items. Turns are resolved simultaneously, with players planning battles rather than directly controlling them.

It has simplistic graphics but is easily moddable and extremely deep.

Basically, it's an autist’s wet dream of a war game.

I honestly don't get what's up with the democrat thread pics

I don't think anyone does.

I'm surprised we haven't rustled more jimmies with it, good to be on a laid back board.

I don't think people really give a damn.

Besides that, thoughts on nazca? I haven't seen it played in a while, and have no idea how to play them. Any pro tips?

With the nerf to supaya-summoning they're kinda shit. Still, I'm interested in playing them too.

Malliqui can cast while being communion slaves, but only on linux systems, so you can set a group of them as both masters and slaves for a bunch of big spells, and confuse anyone on windows and mac.

you can still script them no matter the OS, you just won't see it. LLamaserver will though because it's linux.

Royal Malqui are amazing, but also expensive as all fuck. Still, if you get a bunch of them summoning Supayas every turn you can quickly form flying death squads with them. Take a heavy bless (W9 or B9 at least IMO) and you can potentially dominate the midgame with your Supayas even though they were nerfed (beore the nerf they were insane) after a somewhat shakey early game. Apart from the Malqui, their mages are ok to good ,but not terribly efficient. Still, they get the job done well enough and when they die they reincarnate as Malqui (and get an insane upkeep cost to boot, but that's a price you should be prepared to pay), so that's pretty sweet.

Their regular units aren't very good at all, so expansion can be a bit rocky depending on what you're up against. I personally like to get some of the cheap Malqui types (forgot the name) early on because they can gather slaves really fast. Slaves are shit units with goddamn awful morale, but you can get enough of them without spending any money to be a serious help to your expansion. Later on you'll want to switch to using mainly Supayas and summons, because as said their regular units aren't any good. Their sacreds are ok though, especially assuming you already have a good bless for your Supaya spam.
